We’re back with Pit Stop Picks #7: Best of NC BBQ, and this stop is pure North Carolina tradition. 🍖🔥

In this episode, we head to Shelby, NC to visit Red Bridges Barbecue Lodge, a BBQ institution that’s been serving pit-cooked pork for nearly 80 years. This family-owned spot has stayed true to its roots — slow-cooking pork over hickory wood, using time-tested methods passed down through three generations of the Bridges family.

Before digging in, we take a ride through Shelby, North Carolina, a Piedmont town built on hard work, history, and community. From its railroad and textile roots to its deep connection to classic Carolina barbecue, Shelby is the perfect home for a place like Red Bridges.

Inside the restaurant, it feels like stepping back in time — wood-paneled ceilings, vintage photos, retro booths, and a menu focused on doing one thing right. Red Bridges is known for its Piedmont-style BBQ, featuring chopped or sliced pork, a tangy red vinegar-tomato sauce, and the legendary “outside brown” that BBQ lovers search for.
